- Multi-tab: browser_new_page / browser_list_pages /
browser_switch_page / browser_close_page in playwright_mcp.py;
each new page gets a fresh Playwright context, so cookies and
storage are isolated between pages. Single-page tools act on
the current page; switching to a missing index is an error,
not a crash; closing the last page is an error (use
browser_close).
- Navigation allowlist: BROWSER_ALLOWED_HOSTS (comma list,
leading-dot suffix match, case/port-insensitive) checked in
_check_allowed_url before launching Chromium; unset (or empty)
means no check, the old behaviour. file:// always allowed;
localhost/127.0.0.1 have no special treatment.
- Close cleanup: browser_close closes all pages and best-effort
removes cwd browser-live.png / browser-live.json; custom
screenshot files are untouched. list_pages needs no launch.
- Egress filter: 10 programming-source Tinyproxy BASIC rules
(python.org, nodejs.org, go.dev, pkg.go.dev, rust-lang.org,
developer.mozilla.org, crates.io, stackoverflow.com,
cve.mitre.org, nvd.nist.gov); already-present github.com /
pypi.org / npmjs.org not duplicated; searx.diante.me stays
exact-only, no diante.me wildcard.
- Allowlist worker wiring: _docker_task_context now passes a
set, non-empty BROWSER_ALLOWED_HOSTS from the worker env into
[mcp_servers.playwright.env] in the tenant config, so the MCP
process actually sees it (container -e alone does not reach
MCP subprocesses, 2026-10-30). Unset/empty writes nothing and
never overwrites; the value never goes into logs; it is not
added to the websearch env block or the container env.
ensure_playwright_mcp_env now returns False without rewriting
when the result would be identical (canonical join: one blank
line before the block), so a second prep leaves an unchanged
tenant config alone; other sections untouched.
- Skill + docs: browser-automation SKILL.md multi-tab/allowlist
section; docs/platform-browser.md comparison doc (new file).
- Tests (mock/fake only, no network, no real Chromium, no real
credentials): cloud.tests.test_playwright +
cloud.tests.test_websearch_worker, 48 tests OK, including 6
new wiring tests (switch off passes no variable, switch on
reaches MCP env verbatim, empty never written, old-tenant
merge idempotent + no-rewrite, ensure no-op when identical,
allowlist enforces only after wiring).
- NOT done (see PR body): no persistent profile, no credential
vault, no approval card, no CAPTCHA bypass, in-page link
navigation does not pass the allowlist, no real-Chromium live
verification, host tinyproxy filter not reloaded.
